WORKING NOTES:

1. First Call Amount Due: 10,000 shares × Rs.25 = Rs.2,50,000

2. Calls-in-Arrears: 200 shares × Rs.25 = Rs.5,000

3. Calls-in-Advance: 500 shares × Rs.25 = Rs.12,500 (Member paid final call amount in advance)

4. First Call Amount Received: Rs.2,50,000 - Rs.5,000 (Arrears) = Rs.2,45,000

5. Total Bank Receipts: Application: Rs.2,00,000 Allotment: Rs.3,00,000 First Call: Rs.2,45,000 Calls-in-Advance: Rs.12,500 Total: Rs.7,57,500

Explanation

This question tests understanding of share issue with calls-in-arrears and calls-in-advance. The member holding 200 shares failed to pay first call (Rs.5,000 arrears). The member holding 500 shares paid both first call and final call in advance (Rs.12,500 as calls-in-advance). Final call was not made, so no entry for final call. The cash book shows total receipts of Rs.7,57,500 with balance carried down.
